Case Discussion Prep: Ramesh and Gargi

Paper details:

I attached the case file that the questions revolve around. Instructions below(do exactly as they say): A. Discussion Questions (50%) In one sentence, indicate the primary source of trouble in this case. Taking on the role of each of the three main characters in this case, provide a few sentences showing how you believe they would each describe themselves. DO NOT respond by simply having them state what their position is or what their formal role is. Try to show their perception of themselves and/or their actions. Make sure to indicate multiple self-perceived characteristics, meanings or motivations. “I am Kamla and I …” “I am Gargi and I … ” “I am Ramesh and I …” Whom do you most identify with in this story? In what ways and why? Push yourself to choose ONE. If you were the person you indicated in (3), describe what, if anything you might do differently. If you believe you would not behave differently in any way being in that person’s position within the case, give some reasons why you would choose to behave the same way they did. B. Essay Question (50%) Briefly describe the situation that exists at the end of this case, then describe how at least three topics covered in your assigned readings or other credible sources relate to your understanding of what has happened in this case and/or the state of affairs at the close of this case. For full credit you must use in-text citations to show where you are drawing your support for the claims you are making. For full credit you must also list your source(s) at the end of your essay. Below you are provided with an example that may be helpful to you in citing your sources of support.
